Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department’s Prairie Park Nature Center will once again welcome their turkey friends to the nature center for a special Thanksgiving program.

Turkey Time is a free all-ages program led by Dara Wilson, PPNC Naturalist, and her favorite live turkeys. Guests will learn about wild turkeys in Kansas while getting a closer look at the feathery friends.

The event will be held 10-11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 20, in the amphitheater at Prairie Park Nature Center, 2730 Harper St. This will be an outdoor event, so guests are encouraged to dress for the weather. No dogs will be allowed in the vicinity during the program.
